This is the start of something big!

If Barrett wins this recall election, then this should give other states the COURAGE to stand up to their own Republican governors and FIGHT for their Constitutional rights which are being taken away from them.

A win in Wisconsin would send a message to the 1% that you CAN'T BUY an election.
You might be able to flood a campaign with money, but the PEOPLE have the VOTE.

More states and politicians need to KICK THE KOCH HABIT!!!!

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE!

$22.86 per vote. Barret $3.36 per vote.

Walker owes and will need to help his benefactors steal the State's public assets.
